VO system temp block with ground. Suitable for Cyberdyne sending units. Sorry only available in 5/16.

Also would work well for a trans temp gauge inline before the cooler for an absolutely accurate trans temp.

Buy some metal snaps and rivets for the install. The kit comes with self adhesive snaps that dont work worth a damn.

Finally- CHECK VALVES!

What would be needed for a 2nd Gen 7.3l? I'm trying to buy a hose kit form DFA to get rid of my valves but they're probably too busy figgering out the new Vegistrokes for the new Fords. I need the specs for the following - links and best of breed suggestions appreciated:

1. Check valves.
2. fittings for the the heads - 90 degree angles.
3. a nice T or two for fuel dist.
4. a purge solenoid.

1. Check valves. Leon- posted earlier link doesn't work - here's the updated link: http://wvodesigns.com/store/sst-check-valve-for-99-02-psd.html
2. fittings for the the heads - 90 degree angles. what thread? is the port 1/8" (M)NPT? I've never looked.

It is 1/8 pipe. I would use a hex nipple and a female swivel then go from there

What size fuel lines did you use to connect everything? I've been using 3/8's for everything, since oem is 5/16" in the valley to feed the heads, should I just do that?

 

[mankypro]

Seems like most of the normally closed 2 way solenoid valves I can find in 3/8" only come with BUNA-N seals. e.g. McMaster-Carr

Pretty sure BUNA-N is to be avoided in WVO stuff...

Check for 1/4 NPT. You will likely have more selection in 1/4 NPT. Be sure to buy one with VIton seals.

Got the vibralok replacement seals for the oem fuel rails from Dieselorings.
CV's from Leon Griffin.
Still need a solenoid and a tee for wvo - trying to find a SS one going to do a 4 way to get a temp gauge and a fuel pressure gauge into, I'll just use a 3 way off one side to split VO to the heads, going to put a cv at the wvo input port as well, guess the normally closed solenoid will need to be forward of the wvo cv. Ugh this is a complete different set of design issues to think of - very different than using valves.

[jgrimes]

Tell me if i got this straight. Im trying to put a system in my 2000 PSD. What i would need for it to work efficiently and correctly are as follows:

Tank with heating element.
two Fuel filters (1 right after the tank, 1 right before the pump)
Solenoid (pump:FASS, AIRDOG, etc)
FPHE
Hose
Tees
Feeds to hoses

I am uncertain on how the fuel is pushed from the tank to the filter then the FPHE then the pump and finally into the injectors.

 

[ridiculously_necessary]

put up a new post, youll get better responses.

skip the soleniod, use cv's for switching.

what kind of tank are you going to use? this will dictate heat type.
fphe - yes
hose (preferably HIH) - yes
tes - up to you
feeds to hoses?

fuel path should be - tank with heated pickup and 150 or so screen > pump > filter > fphe > check valves > heads

assuming you use an internally regulated pump.
